Review on Gizmo Dorks Polycarbonate Filament 3D Printers by Leslie Matlak

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I was concerned about the 1 star reviews, glad I took the chance

Never printed on a PC and looking for a small roll for review. All the 1 star reviews almost put me off but for the price I thought it was worth checking out. When the roll arrived I was even more concerned, the seal on the bag was broken so I knew it needed drying and it came on a black plastic spool rather than the cardboard shown in the listing. *Fear mounting* I dried the spool at 75°C for 24 hours and then proceeded to print. This stuff prints great! Glue stick on PEI nozzle at 265°C, 115°C layer, no warping/lifting, excellent layer adhesion and parts are STRONG! Almost feels like steel. Much more durable than ABS or PETG. My main reason for buying a PC was a fan duct that can handle printing with high temperature materials like ABS, PC or Nylon. So far it looks like it has exceeded all my expectations. I'm glad the bad reviews didn't put me off.

Pros
  • Filament diameter 1.75mm (dimensional accuracy +/- 0.03mm)
Cons
  • Some errors
